Syracuse Biathlon Club hosted a mass start race on 1\/15\/11 at the Osceola Cross Country Ski Center. Overcast sky, with increasing heavy snow. 22 people went off in two heats (if you can call it that in a winter sport), with the boy\/girl and grand masters going in one group and everyone else in the other. Boy\/Girl, women and men’s grand master skied 10km, and everyone else did 12.2km. <\/p>\n
The top three fastest times for the 10km where:<\/p>\n
Russ Myer: 0:55:52 (men grand masters)
\nBrian Wieghaus: 0:57:50 (men grand masters)
\nArt Stegen: 0:59:35 (men grand masters)<\/p>\n
The Monsters of Destruction sent Doug Diehl to bring chaos on the field at 0:55;29 just barely squeaking by Eric Seyes at 0:55:30 (men open), followed by Gary Beck (men masters).<\/p>\n
There were some blazing fast boy\/girl, novice skiers too: Jessica Snyder 0:51:18 and Matthew Forshey: 0:54:17. Keep an eye on their biathlon careers.<\/p>\n
Top shooting for the day, with 14 hits: Russ Myer, Pat Clancy, and Brian Wieghaus.<\/p>\n
